Using Pure Data in Spore and Darkspore
Author: Kent Jolly
A short presentation on the development of EApd at Electronic Arts, and it's use in Spore as well as Darkspore, followed by a Q/A period.
The use of Pd in Spore was a first in many respects. Buoyed by the excitement and innovation of the game, the team was willing to take on procedural music and a custom sound system that featured the use of Pd (EApd).
The talk will detail how pd was implemented and used, what the successes and problems were, and invite discussion on ways to advance the use of Pd and procedural audio in the future.
